Not being funny, I have honestly never seen a good use case for a touchscreen that’s too big to fit in your pocket a la your phone and isn’t better served by a mouse & keyboard or a remote like a TV.
I have an 8" tablet that I like because it’s a lot more portable than a full laptop, and I can rotate it, and it’s got a larger screen than my phone. Just the other day I was using it to study for a class I’m taking, and it worked wonderfully for that. And I’m sure artists love them for digital art work, especially with larger screens.
I’ve used 2-in-1 laptops, and I wasn’t a fan because they’re awkward due to the weight, and sometimes they don’t shut off all the buttons on the keyboard part. And you can’t always take off the keyboard to mitigate those issues.
I have the galaxy tab ultra. I use it more than my actual tablet for surfing and lounging and watching videos. For work and productivity I use my laptop. If I really had to pick one, I’d probably pick the tablet. It’s all about what you do with it + formfactor
(have a desktop for actual gaming)
Also, the Lenovo y700 is an awesome device if you want an 8inch tablet.
Why the fuck would you spend 800 euro on a 13", non-upgradeable tablet instead of, say, a laptop?
Apologies, I’m just bitter no one makes 8 inchers anymore.
Because you want a device that’s a tablet first.
Why would you want that though?

To read comics for one.
